In honor of March Madness, today’s stretch is for all you basketball players. With lots of twisting, turning, and quick motions, it’s important to take care of your spine.

Cat-Cow

Get into tabletop position, with knees on the floor hip width apart and hands on the floor shoulder width apart.

Start with a neutral flat back.

Inhale as you lift your chin and tailbone while your stomach dips towards the ground. Keep your shoulders away from your ears and draw your gaze to the ceiling. (Cow)

Exhale as you draw your belly button to your spine and round your back. Drop your chin to your chest and tuck your tailbone. (Cat)

Repeat 10-15 times.
